| Welcome to KARABS website |
The club’s annual show, the Medallion is just around the corner and it promises to be bigger and
better than last year. It light of the ever increasing cost of gasoline and diesel, the Medallion is a
real bargain since it is a two region qualifying show all in one weekend; Medallion I is a Region 14
qualifying show and Medallion II is a Region 13 qualifying show. Many exciting additions have been
made to the show which will be held on June 14 & 15 at Roberts Arena in Wilmington, OH. An
Arabian Supreme Halter Championship class has been added to both the Medallion I and II. The
class is being sponsored by the new Kentucky Arabian and Half-Arabian Breeders Alliance. On
Saturday, Amy Gamble will judge the Medallion I and Sport Horse classes will be judged by Davida
Bierbrauer. Sunday’s show, Medallion II, will be judged by Jane Engers and will again include
National Show Horse classes. Adrienne Hancock-Leong, Louisville, KY will be judging the Sunday
equitation classes with the exception of NSH equitation. Tracy Kelsey Photography will be the
official show photographer.
Dressage classes are being added to the Medallion I and will be held Saturday morning before the
Sport Horse classes. Ms. Bierbrauer will be the dressage judge. Gloria Bush is the Dressage
Coordinator. If you would like to receive a prize list, please contact either Bev Broughton, show
manager (812-852-2200) or Jean Hedger, show secretary (937-434-6114). For additional
information go to www.karabs.org/medallion.
New this year is a ‘Horse For Sale’ back number designation program. For a nominal fee exhibitor’s

showing is available for purchase. Announcements will be made throughout the day in the show
arena and ‘Available for Purchase’ flyers with the horses’ information and photo will be posted
through the facilities and will be available in the show office. The cost is either $20 (includes a
photo of the horse in the flyer) or $15 (no photo in flyer) per horse in advance of the show. The
information/photo needs to be received by June 7, but the horse does not need to be pre-entered
in any classes. Back number stickers will be available at the show for $10 but no information on the

Foaling time is here. Are you expecting a little one? If so, it would be great for all club members to

new babies, please send a birth announcement and photos to Cindy Ryan at cbeckryan@aol.com
